Another come back win for the Hawks 2-0 down midway through the 3rd period to take the 3-2 in OT with another pair of goals form Hossa and another game winner from Sharp.

Looks like the Hawks are still a little rink rusty and slowly getting used to the changes, will be challenging once again I think later in the season and will not relinquish the cup easily.

Good to see the Hawks back at the top of the division where they belong Toews and Kane have had slow starts to the season so it's Hossa and Sharp that have stepped up and have been leading the team with 7 goals for Hossa and 6 for Sharp already.

Bruins beat the Capitals 3-1

Judging by the start Niemi has had so far for the Sharks (3.71 GA & .879 sv% from 3 starts) maybe the Hawks were right to walk away from the deal, its early days yet I know time will tell. It could be the fact the the Sharks have struggled to get going after season openers in Sweden although the Canes who beat them 5-2 last night in San Jose had openers in Finland.

Boston are looking promising again for another good season, Lucic looks up for it again too taking Erskine on toe to toe.

Looks like Rick Rypien will be facing a spell on the side lines after pushing a Minnesota fan who was stood clapping as he left the ice down the tunnel after been given a double minor plus 10 misconduct penalty in the Canucks game against the Wild.

Another win for the Hawks beating the Canucks 2-1 in shootout. Turco again coming up big saving 36 of 37 shots and 8 big saves in OT. Kane, Toews & Sharp scoring in the shootout, Stalberg scoring in regulation.

Canucks Rypien has unsuprisingly been suspended by the NHL pending investigation into the altercation with a Wild fan.

Bruins beat the Capitals 4-1

I think it's time for Phoenix to be moved to somewhere else,last night after a year when they got to the playoffs and they have a good young team they only managed to get a paid attendance of 6,700 (actual crowd was more like 5000).They said they needed a winning team for people to turn up but now they have that they still can't get people in Arizona to go and watch Hockey.There's plenty of places that would welcome an NHL team.Kansas city,Seattle,Quebec,Winnipeg to name just a few.

Bad weekend for the Blackhawks losing to the Blues on friday and at home to the Blue Jackets last night.

Over in New Jersey 1st year coach John MacLean made the baffling decision to make star signing Kovalchuck a healthy scratch.It didn't work as they lost and still haven't won at home.Devils GM Lamarillo isn't known for being patient and after getting into cap trouble to sign Kovalchuck I can't see him being pleased to see a fit player in the press box rather than on the ice earning his 6 million salary.I think MacLeans stay as Devils coach could be short unless things change quickly

Not the best way to use your most expensive asset, still can't understand why the Devils made the deal.

Hawks halt the slide with a 3-1 win against LA. Another great display from Turco the up side but the downside is an injury to Hossa, plus Quenneville not happy with the defensive work by the forwards. Last season Hawks outshot just about every opponent but this season are getting outshot themselves in fact last 6 on the trot, maybe why Quenneville pin pointing defensive effort from the forwards.

Bruins beat the Leafs 2-0

It's been a bad week for the Blackhawks.I don't think they've won since Hossa got injured,they needed Toews and Kane to step up but they haven't.They are 4th in the division having played at least 3 more games than the rest of the teams.Unless the big name players start playing better it could be a struggle to qualify for the playoffs.

Finally Toews and Kane came to play last night as the Blackhawks beat Atlanta 5-4 with 2 goals each from T and K.

Bruins beat the Penguins 7-4

Hawks still trying to find some form and consistency going down at the United again this time 2-1 against the Yotes. Still think come midway we'll have picked up and get on a roll. Just need a little patience.
